1893 is interesting to me and others because it was the beginning of what would be the longest non-Depression economic downturn in our nation's...
Any reason the 1889 and 1893 Carson City's are tough to get in regular or DMPL ? Haven't gotten my book yet, I know most CC's weren't needed and...
Agreed...I just thought there'd be much less price variation, especially at a 'sophisticated' site like HA (say, compared to Ebay where I would...
True...it's just that I would expect this more at eBay where you have the masses participating rather than at HA which you go to pretty much...
Thanks for the info, SD...I'm just surprised because some of those MS-67 CAC 1879-S Morgan's had the same description as the coin I have but 1/2...
Santini, thanks for chiming in....I read the titles for the coins a few times because I know like Ebay sometimes a search engine will bring up...
You know, they gave us surcharges in the past when gasoline was $4/gal......now that it's under $2, it's unreal. Heck, even Post Office charged...
Can I ask a question about checking past auction results at HA (I just signed up earlier today):...

Great analysis, MD. As for the CC...I think because the very name evokes the Wild West and frontier living....don't get the same thing from New...
I'm really not sure to be honest. I live in a 1970's constructed building. I would check with the engineers or building manager to make sure 500...
The TPGs really did help the market. The only good thing about the Coin Bubble was that it happened early in the TPG history and right after the...
I think what you are saying is: the best coins, and those most likely to grade PL/DMPL... are the ones graded and/or submitted to HA....so there...
So 5-10% of MSDs are PL/DMPL depending on if the Year/Mint is common or rate, right ? Any idea what the split is between PL vs. DMPL/DPL ? That...
Figured an upstairs safe....with guys needing to bring in equipment....and then it taking a few minutes to move it to the street or out of the...
VERY useful info, thanks MD !!
I think there's a book on how to buy/grade coins from pictures or something to that effect. Don't have it nor have I read it, any of you ?
